Veined feet

Liz321 · 06-05-2007, 08:01 AM

This a.m. my feet looked "veiny". I'm thinking the booties may have been a tad tighter than usual.

Just wondering if I should be conncerned if this is part of aging with SCI post 25+

I notice veiny feet as well, even when swollen ... 22yrs this summer.

IF your shoes or boots are tight, they can cause your feet to look like the veins are popping out. Just keep an eye on them.

mine are also extremely veined. They are not bulging, my feet aren't even EVER swollen at all. It's just a map of criss-crossed blue veins. Rather ironic considering I have no visible veins in my arms or hands. Nurses and doctors always complain that I have such small ones. Everyone's body is differently built, I suppose.
